MDF Game 3 | Rangers @ Capitals 5/4/15 7:30pm

[Novacane]

Sather ROFL

 

[zeykshade]

That's a crap call against Brassard. Orpik holding his stick.

 

[Mentosman42]

Orpik holding the stick but brassard should know better.

 

[BoWmEn]

My gawd Hank.

 

[RoyalDuder]

Penalty Kill 101

 

[BigBen]

That's a pretty dangerous pp.

 

[Bedards Dad]

Penalty Kill 101

Let the other team get shots and hope your goalie is good enough?

 

[Merya]

That's a pretty dangerous pp.

No it wasn't. It was below mediocre, with only danger being individual star moments.

 

[Blatant]

Let the other team get shots and hope your goalie is good enough?

Caps had 2 shots on 2 PPs...

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

Because they're a team that lives off their PP and when they don't get the calls they lose

game 1?

 

[Bedards Dad]

Caps had 2 shots on 2 PPs...

They had 2 that hit Hank in the last one alone, Green and Ovi, could have been another as well.

 

[Merya]

Neither team is even trying to play according to any system or strategy. What a terrible first period of two teams worth of really high paid undisciplined dorks.

 

[Raspewtin]

That period was insanely fun.

 

[Lovethiscity]

I know this isn't the series thread, but it's locked so please forgive me. I'm watching the game right now and thinking-

Who do Tampa Bay fans and Montreal fans want to see win this series? I want to see the Rangers in the conference finals because the Lightning match up well against them and there's a storyline there.

really? I feel Rangers are playing their system and they are dominating the game with it so far

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Rangers are playing well. Caps defensemen need to stop jumping the gun every 5 seconds and generate more shots. They are too cute with the puck.

 

[Greecian]

5 on 5 it's not even close. Rangers penalties are causing them to lose momentum

 

[NYR713]

I'm loving the pace so far. 5 on 5 I feel like Rangers are looking really good, although Caps pulling some nice momentum swings and just spent a nice amount of time in their offensive zone at the end of the period. If NYR can stay out of the box with the dumb stuff and keep up that 5 on 5 play, they can steal one on the road.

 

[illpucks]

Lundqvist has been outstanding so far.

This Bolts fan wants the Rangers to win. Mainly for the MSL, Callahan, Stralman, Boyle storyline.

Also, as a giant middle finger to the World, I'd like us to beat NYR and meet and beat CHI in the Cup Finals.
Beating 2/3 of the O6 on the way to The Cup would be ****ing epic.

All a dream at this point and it may stay one, but that's the sweet thing about this time of year.

 

[NYR713]

Lundqvist has been outstanding so far.

Holtby too. It's been a battle all series with these two.

 

[TMLer]

Yeah both goalies have been just wow but Hank in that 1st...unreal.

 

[TMLer]

That's how you take a penalty. Know you ****ed up and go right to the box lol

 

[pocketrockets]

Calm down Pierre

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

That was a great penalty kill.
